Chapter 232 Purchasing Goods at the Farmhouse
Tang Wei looked around and said, "By the way, where are your friends? They are really nice people. I wanted to thank them."
Mu Ci took over the conversation: "He has something else to do later and is in a hurry to leave."
Tang Wei nodded, without much hesitation. He couldn't thank his friends, but he could thank Mu Ci.
Time was tight and the task was heavy, so there wasn't much chatting.
The most important thing now is to transport all these supplies to the cave before the hottest time of the day at noon.
Still following yesterday's method, we were divided into two groups.
However, even though Jiaojiao sometimes used space to cheat, she was still exhausted after all these trips.
After it was over, everyone immediately ran back to the cave to cool down.
If you stay outside any longer, your life will be in danger!
As soon as Shi Jiaojiao rushed into the cave, she quickly gave herself and Mu Ci a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi water.
After one bite, the taste is so intoxicating that it makes you sober immediately.
Xiao Hei covered his nose with his paws in disgust.
The two-legged beasts are eating weird things again.
Shi Jiaojiao saw Xiao Hei huddled in the corner looking aggrieved, so she simply let it go back to its own space to play.
After lunch, she and Mu Ci took a two-hour nap.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the four of them gathered again.
They still have a lot to do next.
In addition to organizing the supplies in the cave, there was another most important problem facing them.
That is, there is no toilet.
Jiaojiao didn't notice this problem at the time, but only discovered it yesterday after staying in the cave for a night.
There is a farmhouse, but it is too far from the cave.
If you go for a run during the polar day, your skin will probably be sunburned.
After some discussion, the four of them finally decided to dig a dry toilet near the cave.
Fortunately, they only planned to hide here until the end of the polar day, so the dry toilet did not need to be dug too large.
The two caves are about twenty meters apart. For convenience, the location was finally decided in the middle of the two caves.
Although you inevitably have to go out to use the toilet, it is better than going to a farm house.
With Wang Jia and Tang Wei around, the robots in the space naturally could not be taken out.
Shi Jiaojiao sighed, picked up a shovel with the other three people, and started digging the hole.
She also tried to dig the cave herself and found out that it was so difficult to dig.
The mountain was too hard and we hit rocks after a while of digging. If it weren't for the high quality of the engineer shovel in the earthquake kit, it would have been scrapped long ago.
After working diligently for a whole day, the small cave finally took shape.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, Shi Jiaojiao wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Let's stop here today and continue tomorrow."
Wang Jia wanted to hold on a little longer, but his arms were shaking as if he had been electrocuted, and he was dragged away by Tang Wei.
Two o'clock in the middle of the night is the time when we sleep the deepest.
Shi Jiaojiao and Mu Ci walked lightly and came to the small cave that had been half-dug today, followed by two robots.
"You guys expand the cave a little, but don't make any noise."
The robots' screens flashed, indicating that they understood.
Then he started working secretly.
One was responsible for digging, and the other for removing stones and dust to cover up the remains.
The next day, Wang Jia stood in front of the small cave with a shovel in his hand, his face full of confusion: "Why do I feel that the cave seems to be a little bigger?"
Tang Wei scratched his head: "Really? Isn't this the same as yesterday?"
After the cave is completed, the next step is to dig a hole.
The pit doesn't need to be too deep, after all, there are only a few of them.
After one shovelful, Wang Jia was a little surprised.
"The ground is much easier to dig than the wall!"
Shi Jiaojiao continued to work and nodded in agreement.
How could it be difficult to dig? Yesterday she specially asked the robot to loosen the soil.
If she wasn't afraid that Wang Jia and the others would find out something was wrong, she would have wanted to hand it all over to the robot.
After the pit was dug, two wooden boards were placed on top and the dry toilet was successfully built.
After the event, everyone was a little tired, so we said goodbye and went home.
Although it is already past ten o'clock in the evening, it is still as bright as day outside, which easily gives people the illusion that only half of the day has passed.
In order to prevent the biological clock from being disrupted, I had to close the cave door tightly and force myself to close my eyes.
Early the next morning, the four of them gathered together again after breakfast.
Although the midnight sun is scary, it is not completely without benefits.
The sun hangs high in the sky 24 hours a day, so solar generators can be used without restraint, achieving freedom in electricity use.
This also means that they can rely on air conditioning to survive the polar day.
However, the solar panels can be placed outside, but the location of the generator and air conditioner outdoor unit still needs to be carefully considered.
It would make too much noise if placed in a cave, and it would easily cause a fire if placed outside.
Wang Jia thought about it and said, "How about digging a hole in the cave and putting the machine in it?"
Shi Jiaojiao shook her head: "If we don't dissipate the heat, if it explodes, we won't be able to escape even if we want to."
After much discussion, we finally decided to use dry toilets.
Dig a hole next to the two caves. The location cannot be too far because it needs to be connected to the electrical wires.
With a solution in mind, the four of them immediately rolled up their sleeves and got to work.
Shi Jiaojiao was not that tired, so she let the little robot come out secretly to help. Anyway, she was far away from Wang Jia and could not see her.
When the time was almost up, she and Mu Ci took the shovels and went to help Wang Jia.
Holes were drilled with an electric drill for the electrical wires, and finally a sunshade was placed around the cave, and everything was done.
On the fourth day after moving to the mountain, everyone finally felt the long-lost coolness.
The moment the air conditioner started, Tang Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
Among the four, he is the least heat-tolerant and will sweat all over if he moves even a little.
Before the end of the world, he didn't even dare to go to the sauna room because he felt short of breath once he entered.
Although the cave was cooler than outside, he still felt suffocated for the past two days.
That night, Wang Jia and his friend finally said goodbye to the dry multi-grain cakes and had a decent meal.
Although the cooking skills were not very good and there were no good ingredients, the two still felt that the meal was extremely delicious.
The problem is that the multi-grain cakes are really unpalatable, not to mention eating them for several days in a row.
On the other side, Shi Jiaojiao was sitting on the sofa taken out from the space, struggling with what to eat.
The weather is too hot and even with air conditioning, my appetite is not very good.
Mu Ci suggested: "How about cold noodles? Pair it with mung bean porridge, and then have a refreshing side dish at the end."
For some reason, Shi Jiaojiao had no appetite just now, but after hearing her brother's voice, she couldn't help swallowing and suddenly felt a little hungry.
Fortunately, the food is ready and can be eaten right away.
After dinner, Mu Ci took out the deodorant and sprayed the entire cave.
Half an hour later, Wang Jia's voice was heard outside the door.
Shi Jiaojiao immediately put away the things that shouldn't be there, and then opened the door.
"Jiaojiao, let's go to a farm stay?" Wang Jia suggested enthusiastically.
Tang Wei also spoke up: "We don't have a bed now, the mattress is too thin, and it's too uncomfortable to sleep on."
Shi Jiaojiao was stunned. She and Mu Ci would take the bed out of the space when they slept at night, so she didn't notice this problem.
She nodded: "Sure, not only the bed, but also some cabinets and benches can be moved in. I remember there is a freezer in there, but I don't know if it is broken or not."
Hearing this, Wang Jia's eyes lit up and he wished he could grow wings and fly over immediately.
In the following time, the four of them were like mice getting into a rice jar, frantically purchasing goods from the farm house.
The big freezer was naturally also moved away. Firstly, it was impossible to tell whether it was good or bad if it was not plugged in. Secondly, even if it couldn't be used, the freezer was the best insulated box, so it wasn't a loss anyway.
When leaving for the last time, Shi Jiaojiao left her eyes on a corner of the farm house gate.
This way she can check the situation outside at any time.
By the time everyone returned to the cave, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
There were too many things to move back, so the four of them unanimously decided to sort them out after they woke up.
After closing the cave door, Shi Jiaojiao looked a little heavy.
Wang Jia and Tang Wei were so busy that they didn't notice it, but I saw it clearly.
The moon only appeared briefly for an hour and a half throughout the night.
It is obvious that the polar day has shown its fangs to humans.
